Topic: The Gift of a Child (Read 1543 times)

My 19 yr old daughter is going into labor as we speak. I sadly cannot be up there. Grateful to God my wife can. She has chosen to have a natural home birth. May our Lord God be with her. Praise and thanksgiving for for a new born child!

There are heathens that live with more virtue than I. The devil himself believes Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Neither of these things truly makes me Christian.

Conquer evil men by your gentle kindness, and make zealous men wonder at your goodness. Put the lover of legality to shame by your compassion. With the afflicted be afflicted in mind. Love all men, but keep distant from all men.—St. Isaac of Syria

Not as of yet! Apparently taking after his grandfather and taking his sweet time.

I thank you all for the prayers. It means a lot to a nervous grandpa. My family and home Church are as well of course. I will pass these prayers on to my daughter who has reverence and respect for our Orthodox brethren as well as I do.

God bless and Glory be to God indeed!!
